Note: <xsl:output> is a top-level element, and must appear as a child node of <xsl:stylesheet> or <xsl:transform>.
<xsl:output method="xml|html|text|name" version="string" encoding="string" omit-xml-declaration="yes|no" standalone="yes|no" doctype-public="string" doctype-system="string" cdata-section-elements="namelist" indent="yes|no" media-type="string"/> |

The output in this example will be an XML document, version 1.0. The character encoding is set to "ISO-8859-1" and the output will be indented for readability:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" indent="yes"/> ... ... </xsl:stylesheet> |
The output in this example will be an HTML document, version 4.0. The character encoding is set to "ISO-8859-1" and the output will be indented for readability:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html" version="4.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" indent="yes"/> ... ... </xsl:stylesheet> |
